More or less the same way really... only difference is I would use a chroma keyer to extract the saber from the rest of the image and use that information to create different glowed sabers and color them (as in the tut).

You can even use the PS 'screen' mode in a DF merge tool...

Using the keyer also allows you to do this on a sequence instead of a still...

Good luck with it!

Pieter.
